Many early voters have a horror story to tell of long lines. But that’s what you get when Mecklenburg County sees it’s largest turnout ever for early voting. Mid Saturday afternoon, I had to go to the Main Library in downtown Charlotte to complete some research. Passing Plaza Road library, I saw a line snaking out the door down the side of the building.Arriving downtown, I decided out of curiosity to see how long the line there was to vote. To my surprise, there were only five people waiting to in line. As a person who has zero patience for lines of any kind, I wasted no time getting in that line. It took me more time to go through the eight page ballot than it did to stand in line. What a pleasant surprise.
